Popcorn in a Brand-New Way

There were two short-term specific objectives of the Chico-San Popcorn Cake advertising: 1) To build awareness and generate trial by attracting users from Quaker. 2) To bring new consumers into the category, thus increasing Chico-San's market share. The long-term sales goal was to lessen the share gap between Chico-San and Quaker through the introduction of this new Chico-San Popcorn product. Currently, Chico-San is the category leader with a 40% share of category volume, while Quaker's share of volume has dropped to 35%. Since the advertising began in 1988, Chico-San share has increased by 40% and Quaker has decreased by 38%.

In an environment where growth is usually short-lived and the result of a hot premium, Lucky Charms needed an advertising idea with long-term impact. In April 1989, the brand began the "Red Balloon" campaign, which was designed to excited kids about a new red balloon marshmallow in Lucky Charms. In only six month that the campaign aired, Lucky Charms' volume increased 15% 9as volume for all pre-sweetened brands decreased 4%) and Lucky Charms overtook long-time leader Froot Loops as the best-selling pre-sweetened cereal in the country.
